Chapter 1:
Years Ago:
It was a cold dark night. Outside a blue flat-roofed house, the ground cracked, and some black ooze leaked out and took shape. It turned into a red muscular creature with horns, a pointy tail and large wings. This was the monster we all know as Satan, and he had been waiting years for this moment. Some gargoyles came out of the ground beside him. These were his personal servants. He sent them inside the house. In the living room, they smashed everything, flipped over furniture and set plants on fire. A young woman with purple hair came downstairs and gasped when she saw Satan. She came down to him with an angry look on her face.
"Ah, Martha," Satan said, "I see you haven't run away. Good."
"I know what you came for," Martha said, "and you're not getting it."
"Now, is that any way to talk about your future daughter's father?" Satan asked.
"She's not you're daughter," Martha said, "She's not even born yet."
"Let me see her," Satan said.
"And if I don't?"
Satan snapped his fingers, and the gargoyles headed towards the basement.
"I heard you're going to have a son first," Satan said, "How would you feel if I destroyed his tube before he was born because you wouldn't let me see his sister?"
Martha gasped in horror.
"No! Don't do it!" she cried, then led them to the basement to see her daughter.
In the basement was all sorts of machinery. In the corner of the room was two tubes, with two babies floating in them. One was a boy with scythe hair, and the other was an even younger girl with purple hair.
"My husband is out on a business trip," Martha said, "He'll be back when our son is born."
Satan looked at the baby girl.
"Yes," he said, "She looks like her mother, but that's not why I'm here. She will be the future of Earth's destruction."
"I doubt that," Martha said, "She's my daughter, and as long as she remains here, she will never be a demon."
Satan turned back to Martha.
"I will be back after my daughter's birth," he said, "And then we will see things change. I will take her, even if I have to pry her out of your cold, dead hands."
2 Years Later:
Soon the babies were born. The boy was named Dib, and the girl Gaz. Dib was a happy little baby who liked to play paranormal investigator with his mother. For a while, Gaz was happy too, but then...
One late night, Dib and his dad Professor Membrane went to bed. Martha stayed up with Gaz, who had been crying for Mummy. Suddenly Satan arrived. Martha gasped. She knew this day would come.
"I have come back for my little girl," Satan said.
"No," Martha said, clutching the baby, "She's staying here! You stay away from my baby!"
"I warned you I would come back," Satan said, "Now it's time for you to be a good girl and hand over the child."
Martha grabbed a lamp and threw it at him.
"Okay," Satan said, stepping towards the protective mother, "You've had plenty of warnings. Now I'll just have to do this the hard way."
He reached out, and one of his claws grew. He stuck it in Martha's chest. She gagged, then collapsed onto the ground. Blood began seeping out of the hole in her chest. Blood also leaked out of her eyes and mouth. Martha lay dead on the floor with a stunned look on her face. Satan picked up the baby. He looked down at her.
"So, Gaz is your name is it?" Satan said to her, "Perfect." He ran his claw hown Gaz's forehead, leaving a cut. Then he put her on the table, and pulled out a skull necklace.
"This will show everyone what a demon you are," he said, "You will be feared by everyone. And when you are old enough, I will return to free you from this miserable world."
As he lay the necklace on Gaz's blanket, her eyes turned all squinty. Satan left her there alone and returned to the depths of Hell...
